DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a schematic diagram of a computer system 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The computer system 10 includes a database DB and a processing unit 102, the computer system 10 may include an artificial intelligence (AI) Chatbot, the database DB is used to stores the data of the computer system 10, and the processing unit 102 is used to executes an interactive learning material generation method.

The computer system 10 of the present invention's embodiment can be used in an online learning classroom to interact with the users remotely and provide learning materials, wherein each user can be a student, a teacher, a learner or a reader. Specifically, the interactive learning material of the computer system 10 can be generated based on the resources on the Internet and provide it to users. Since users may have simple question-and-answer conversations with the Chatbot embedded in the computer system 10 online, the Chatbot can collect the users'responses as a basis for analysis, such that the computer system 10 may determine a learning status or a learning level of the users.

Please refer to FIG. 2, which is a schematic diagram of an interactive learning material generation method 20 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The interactive learning material generation method 20 includes the following steps:

• • Step 202: Start;
  • Step 204: Recognize data of a resource database DB with a few-shot learning (FSL) method to determine at least one learning topic;
  • Step 206: Compare a specified topic with the at least one learning topic to determine a comparison result;
  • Step 208: Collect learning data associated with the comparison result based on the comparison result;
  • Step 210: Adjust a difficulty level of the learning content within the learning data according to the user's learning level;
  • Step 212: End.

Based on the interactive learning material generation method 20, the computer system 10 may generate the interactive learning material according to resources on the Internet. In step 204, the computer system 10 recognizes the data of the resource database(DB) using few-shot learning method to determine at least one learning topic, wherein the resource database(DB) includes textbooks, quizzes or related documents conforming an education standards. In this way, the computer system 10 may recognize different topics of the resource database(DB), e.g., biology, medical, history, using a few-shot learning method based on the data in the resource database(DB).

After the user, e.g., a student or a teacher, determines a specified topic, in step 206, the computer system 10 compares the specified topic determined by the user to the learning topic of the resource database(DB), so as to determine the comparison result. That is, in step 206, the computer system 10 is configured to select the specified topic conforming to that determined by the user from the resource database(DB) and then go to step 208 based on the specified topic.

In step 208, the computer system 10 is configured to collect the learning data corresponding to the specified topic according to the comparison result of step 206, wherein the learning data may include at least one video, article, image or broadcast, etc. For example, the specified topic determined by the user in step 206 is history; in step 208, the computer system 10 searches for reliable websites content based on history, e.g., Khan Academy or British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). The list of reliable websites may be determined by teachers or educational institutions.

In step 210, the difficulty level of learning content related to the learning data may be adjusted based on the user's learning level. The computer system 10 can first determine the student's learning level. For example, the computer system 10 can check whether any participation records and corresponding learning levels stored in the resource database(DB), if such records exist, the computer system 10 determines the difficulty level of the learning content according to the student's learning level stored in the resource database(DB); if no records are available, the computer system 10 analyzes the student's learning level according to an analysis of a conversation between the Chatbot and the student, and then adjusts the difficulty level of the learning content accordingly.

In an embodiment, the Chatbot may ask the student historical questions related to the learning topic, and the Chatbot can evaluate the student's learning level based on their responses during the answering process.

Therefore, based on the interactive learning material generation method 20, the computer system 10 may determine the learning content of the learning data with the few-shot learning(FSL) method, wherein the learning content includes multimedia data, and the multimedia data includes videos, articles, images or broadcasts, etc. Therefore, the student may learn the learning content generated by the interactive learning material generation method 20.

The learning material generated by the conventional AI may be divergent and lack of constructiveness. In an embodiment of the present invention, the learning content of the learning data are generated based on the educational principles according to the interactive learning material generation method 20 with few-shot learning method, such that the students may learn the materials in a more effective way.

In addition, after the students learn the learning content provided by the computer system 10, the computer system 10 may generate a leaning result report to the student based on the learning result of the student. Alternatively, the computer system 10 may generate a learning result report along with suggestions based on the learning result of the student and provide to the teacher. In another embodiment, the computer system 10 may adjust the difficulty level of the learning content in step 210 based on the learning results of the student to enhance the interactivity of the generation of the learning materials.

Therefore, the teacher may select the topic in different difficulties or select different specified topics according to the suggestions and the learning result report provided by the computer system 10.

  • Step 310: The computer system 10 collects the learning data related to the comparison result based on the comparison result;
  • Step 312: The computer system 10 determines whether any learning level record of the student exists in the resource database DB of the computer system 10 or not, if such records exist, go to step 318, if no records are available, go to step 314;
  • Step 314: A conversation between the Chatbot of the computer system 10 and the student;
  • Step 316: The computer system 10 analyzes the conversation between the student and the Chatbot to determine the student's learning level;
